Caution: The name might fool you. In the Mostviertel region, you think of charming villages spread across a rolling, grassy landscape. You almost forget about the rugged slopes of the Limestone Alps in the rough south of the region. Here, wild water has cut gorges deep into the limestone rock; mighty cravasses that can be explored on narrow paths. Above them—2000 meters up—giant mountains tower over you, such as Ötscher, Dürrenstein, Hochkar, Gippel and Göller, whose ascent is anything but a walk in the park. But do not be intimidated! The region allows for the perfect balance between ambitious climbs and relaxed hikes. After all, you should also be able to take the kids on with you—or simply sit back, relax and enjoy the delicious local food.
This challenging tour is really just for the experienced mountain goats among you. You should be sure-footed and above all free from giddiness to cross the rough ridge. On the alpine scale, parts of the route are rated Level 1, which means you can be on the road without any backups, but you should still…
